Healthy Aging Seminar Series

The Office of the Provost at UMass Dartmouth has generously awarded funding to Gerontology Center Core Faculty (2008-present) to host a Gerontological Research Seminar Series. The series has been very well received.

The objectives of this interdisciplinary seminar series are to enhance scholarship in Gerontology on the UMass Dartmouth campus and provide a forum for faculty and students with interests in Gerontology to meet and learn about research as applied to health, diversity and diseases of aging. All are welcome. For questions, please contact: Andrew Revell (arevell@umassd.edu; 508-999-8385).
